Dividend Growth ETFs?

We discussed this sometime back. I think the ETFs fail to meet the DGI in part due to turnover. Hold them for years and you still get about the same yield. If in a taxable account they generate Cap gains taxes from trading. If you do it, VIG is among the recognized best. It's a Waterhouse ETF. I preferred VYM though, also from Waterhouse. Pays a considerably higher div because it holds more shares of the high yielding aristocrats like T, Chevron, ABBV etc. I say this without looking at them for about a year. I think DGI is properly done with individual stocks. Grab a couple of the best, (like AVGO) and just hold them for the DGI yield on cost trick to properly work.
